Two part question to this scenario.

What say you:

I say no, regardless of engine type because there isn't enough lift.

All of you other smarty-pantses can play too.



This should be good.

 

I'm with ya on that one need air movement to create the lift on the wings

 

UHH OHH...Sam, you KNOW you just stirred up the 'ol proverbial hornets nest. Lets see how many pages we get up to on DB. I think DP surely has the web record at 73 pages and over 700 posts. This will be another interesting thread.


BTW- No, it wont fly. There is no lift generated in this scenario to "fly" the wing. Bernoulli's Law.

 

He-he. I know. This is gonna be good. I never even had a physics class in high school. I just winged it.

 

 

OH NO..........here we go again

 

on PS.com i think we had it to like 10 pages of fighting and bickering......it dosent cause lift.......its like running on a tread mill and actually running.......no wind resistance......

 

For some side action I'm thinking about starting a "What's better- Republican or Democrat?" thread depending on how this one does.

 

politics suck.............politicians are crooks

 

No, the plane will not fly. Gotta have the airflow. You can set the plane still on the ground with aimed into a strong enough wind and it will fly. I've done that on mys simulator. NASA has kind of thrown Bernoulli's principle out the window now and are saying that deflection, not pressure differences create lift and make planes fly. Its hard to say for sure, but I think it may be some of both

I just noticed the pilot extradoinaire in the title. BTW I failed a check ride yesterday because I had a brain lapse for 1.3 seconds cause I'm an idiot
